Answer 2

$\bigstar\huge\bf\underline{\underline{Answer:-}}$

$\bigstar\bf\underline{\underline{Given:-}}$

• C.P = ₹12000

• S.P = ₹4000

$\bigstar\bf\underline{\underline{To \ find:-}}$

• The loss percentage

$\bigstar\bf\underline{\underline{Solution:-}}$

CP - ₹12000

SP - ₹4000

The cost price is more than selling price

So, there is a loss

Loss = C.P - S.P

$\implies$ 12,000 - 4,000

$\implies$ ₹8,000

then,

Loss % = loss/C.P × 100

$\implies$ 8,000/12,000 × 100

$\boxed{\boxed{\bf Loss \ percentage \ = \ 66.67 \ percentage}}$
